Collins Lake Sept 25-27

[OC Campers]

Alright we are on a roll.  We are going to head to Collins Lake the weekend of Sept 25-27.  This campout is going to be a little different.  Miss Kathy and I talked about trying out the "first come" lakeside sites.  We have never done this before but thought it would be neat to try.  Check out the cg map on //www.collinslake.com  They have improved their website and the map shows pictures of every site.

Cost is $28 a night but it is dry camping.  So bring your generators.  Hopefully, it won't be too hot.  They have water so just fill up before you setup and a dump station to get rid of what you collected.

Don't forget all that yummy ice cream too.


Hope everyone can make it.

P.S  Sorry Glen, Penninsula CG was a great idea but they close Sept 20th

Great idea,
Only I am already going camping that weekend.

We have done lakeside camping at Lake San Antonio, and we loved it, so was looking forward to trying it at Collins lake.
Biggest problem is securing the lakeside real estate.
Someone needs to be there early friday, and try and take up as much space as possible.

Randy and I will most likely be off on Friday so we could head up early and secure spots and then one of us can go home and pick up the kids from school.

I looked at the map, where is the dry camp area, I was unable to find it.

Here are the co-ordinates of the beachfront camping area

39ø 19'35.5"N, 121ø 19'03.89"W

It is at the south end of the lake, near the dam.
Looking at it on Google maps or Google earth, it is west of the dam, you can see the beach area, with trailers and RV's parked at the water's edge

On the "camp map" on their website it says "open area".  There are 2 or 3 different sections.  We won't know which one till we get there.

I would sure like to join you, but we probably won't have the truck's transmission fixed by then.  Maybe we can drive up for the Saturday Pot-Luck?   What do you think of that?  That way it won't be too taxing on Sal.  I'll ask him.  We may just have to wait and see how he is feeling then.
